10 Hidden Gems Things to do in Gran Canaria That You Shouldn't Miss

May 22, 2022 Chanda Heide

Welcoming, tolerant Gran Canaria offers a little something for everyone. Families flock to the water parks and beaches of Puerto Rico. Those seeking peaceful escape scamper to Mogan's quiet fishing villages. Gay visitors crowd the bars, restaurants and beaches of Playa del Ingles. Urban attractions are on offer in Las Palmas. Three highways open up the island for those with a rental car or a bus schedule. Prime sites to visit include Iglesia de San Juan Bautista de Arucas and Palmalitos zoo park.

Canarias Gay

7 h trip with a gay sailing yacht around south of Gran Canaria, with two meals, tapas in the morning and homemade spanish lunch. Quality drinks all day. Maximum 8 guys on board in a new yacht, a Dufour 460 grand large 2018. We always try to arrive to the nicest Beach of the island for me called Guigui Beach, difficult to arrive from land. Nudism is allowed on board.

Eiffel Bar

Having opened its doors in August 2011, the Eiffel Bar is situated in the very popular Yumbo Commercial Centre in the heart of Playa del Ingles. The decoration of the Eiffel Bar is a subtle blend of textures, materials and warm colours in a bright carefully studied environment. Many details will grab your attention from the outset, for example, the numerous articles imported from France, which give the bar a very chic, Parisian ambience. A variety of seating options are available, tables and high chairs for a quick drink, or maybe relax on the terrace. Inside, a more intimate atmosphere awaits you. Two large sofas that invite you to relax while French wine tasting, or enjoy high quality cocktails with or without alcohol. Our drinks menu has been developed to offer you a wide choice, with many premium cocktails, a selection of international beers, special teas, coffees, cocktails and liquors, French Wines and of course CHAMPAGNE.

Scott was a very helpful and honest guy, he drew out a map for us with things we might like to do based on our interests. We saved around 50 euros by booking four excursions with him. He recommended a boat trip and jeep safari based off what we wanted to do. Both were amazing days, we saved an additional 30 euros by having the jet ski option off the back of the boat trip too. We saw him later on in the holiday and he had remembered us and stopped to ask if we had had a good time on the trips. This made us feel like valued customers.
